What makes a good humidor?


A really good humidor should serve several generations, and last longer than it took the wood to grow. Function, elegance, and low maintenance are the basics, and just about every manufacturer in the world claims to fulfill every one. Hmmm. In actual practice, choices and trade-offs are made at every step of the process. We makers want to earn a profit, and you buyers generally want a low price, so more often than not, the result is a product with some or all of its elements being, shall we say, a falling away from the ideal...except in the advertising prose!

For 30 years, my approach has been to create the best possible product at the best possible price, with preference given to the first criteria. The trade-off I make to keep the price down consists of eliminating any extraneous elements. Decorative effects come from functional elements. These are simply the best I can design and craft.
